Thaw 16 x 20 – Acrylic on Wood I started this painting intending to paint a quiet scene with a still pond just beginning to thaw as winter warmed to spring. As I painted I realized that the water wasn’t still at all. Everything, including a quiet pond is constantly moving, changing, flowing together and [...]

Hockley Valley – Complete
Hockley Valley 12 x 16 – Acrylic on Wood Clouds rise from the dead tree’s branches as smoke from a factory and laze about in the endless blue sky. Early fall brings the beginning of change to the valley below but the snag remains aloof and unaffected. Did you know a dead tree that is [...]

Hockley Valley – WIP4
Hockley Valley 12 x 16 – Acrylic on Wood We got a bit of snow recently and there’s some more on the way so I’m feeling a wintry painting coming on. But it’s still a beautiful fall day in Hockley Valley. The dead tree is complete and moves in and out of the background as [...]

Hockley Valley – WIP3
Hockley Valley 12 x 16 – Acrylic on Wood Hmm, I think the first couple shots I took are a little green. The sky is really more purple than turquoise – so this image is a more true representation of the actual painting – at least on my monitor.

Hockley Valley – WIP2
Hockley Valley 12 x 16 – Acrylic on Wood The branches of the dead tree remind me more and more of the steel plant in Hamilton. We drive the skyway often and the plant makes an impressive site. I’ve even taken ref pictures of it – I know it’s not a natural feature of the [...]

Hockley Valley – WIP1
Hockley Valley 12 x 16 – Acrylic on Wood Well it’s -10 degrees outside but in Hockley Valley it’s a gorgeous fall day with little fluffy clouds, gentle breezes and the smell of gently rotting leaves. I couldn’t decide what size to make this painting – some of the shapes in the sky are quite [...]

Carmen – Complete
Carmen 18 x 36 – Acrylic on Wood Here is my last painting of 2011 – a very good year if I do say so. I’m still waiting for a picturesque winter day that I can immortalize in digital film and hopefully paint. But until then I have a few others waiting to be painted. [...]

Carmen – WIP10
Carmen 18 x 36 – Acrylic on Wood Only a few days left ’til 2012! I can hardly believe how quickly this year has flown by! I’ve only a little left of this painting too! I guess this will be the last of 2011. No worries though as I have about a zillion paintings planned [...]

Carmen – WIP8
Carmen 18 x 36 – Acrylic on Wood I hope everyone is having a wonderful holiday! I’m finding lots of time for family and friends, but I’m still managing to squeeze in some painting too! I have moved to the top of the tree where the branches thin out and you can see glimpses of [...]

Carmen – WIP7
Carmen 18 x 36 – Acrylic on Wood It’s looking like we’ll have a green Christmas for sure this year. That’s ok since we will be doing some visiting and that will make driving easier. I do like those first few hours after a snowfall when everything is glittery and pristine. But I can [...]
